Does the exterior get hot? If so, sides, top or both?

Yes. I set the oven to 375. The top reached about 180 deg. The left side was about 20-30 deg less than the top. The right side (where the controls are) just got warm. Hope this info helps.

Ours sits in the shade all day so heat is not a problem. I would assume that it would get hot in the sun if exposed for any length of time, as would all metal. We also put a seat and back cushion on it, so we may not be the best resource to answer the question. It is a nice unit and seems solid. We're happy.

I think it heats all around. I use it for family get togethers and I love it. I don't believe it gets real hot on the outside though, so that makes it real nice to set on counter tops. Hope this helps your question.

The exterior gets warm to the touch, but not extremely hot (at least not in my estimation -- possibly someone else might find it to be objectionably hot).

The bottoms do t get hot but the tops do. Putting that aside it is the best cooking cookware I have used. I love it

We had it on for most of the day and evening and it wasn't getting too warm. The back is probably the warmest but it never got hot hot. It was sitting on a table with nothing around it or up close to it but as long as it isn't smooshed between things I doubt it would overheat.

The outside gets hot, but the door handle is safe to touch. You do need to be careful when removing pans and dishes as there is not much clearance room if you use an 9x13 pan. The cooking times and temps are about the same for a regular large oven. I roast, bake, toast and love this little oven. I also unplug it after use, but you don't need to. The counter top and other items nearby don't seem to be affected by the external heat. It heats up very quickly and cools down quite fast.

It's never gotten hot, I do have a cushion on it, but also use it without the cushion. We gotten as high as 90 degrees, no problem. I recoment it

top, sides and back do not get hot in my experience. however, I never put it too close to anything and allow normal ventilation.

it gets very hot, sides, top and front. the back gets extremly hot. the back has stops to keep it away from the wall but i would advise to keep it a little further away.

Yes it's supposed to get hot. It's where the amp is housed. Not a problem. It was designed this way.

No, it does not get hot. I have never had it overheat or even get warm to the touch.

It gets pretty warm on the outside. But, if you need to move it, use the handles - that's what they're for and they don't get hot.

I haven't had an issue yet, but it is just now starting to get hot. This will be my first summer with it. It has been awesome so far though.

Top, sides and back of heater are cool to the touch. The front where the heat comes from does get very warm.
